I tried to get it for $25 and he countered with $37.99 then I offered $30 and he declined it, so I just pait the $39.99. I have a K&N filter that I'm probably going to install on it instead of the cheap filter it comes with.

But I'll take some pics of the install when it gets here and let you guys what I think of it. But for $65 shipped I personally don't think its a bad deal.

Headers, exhaust, cam, and a tune are next on the list :D But it will probably be a while before I can afford them :(

BTW does anyone know where there is a throttle body hat to replace the air resonator and clean up the engine bay a little?

Ok WOW, do not buy from this seller. First off they didn't send any instructions, should be really straight foward for me, I'm a mechanic, but the only way I could see that it would work is to chop some of it off and redrill the IAT hole. So I emailed them and they sent me a link for an AEM Brute Force intake :think: Well its deffinately not an AEM intake, but whatever, I took what I could from it, relocated the MAF and got all the piping installed. Then I try to install the filter and it doesn't fit on the MAF...WTF, so I had to reuse my K&N that was already installed since it fits over the MAF.

Then I had to lengthen the MAF wires by about 6" and they sent all of the connectors....JUNK, I ended up using my own. And I have a few parts left over, a bracket to hold the intake tube in place, no idea where that goes, and a piece of rubber thats about a 5x5" square. I contacted them again and no reply yet, they responded within a few hours last time.

So stay away from the intake, but I'll let you guys know how it turns out in the end
